From the Paris Musées record

Au premier plan trois groupes de personnages. Le plus important au pied d'une tour à droite, représente des marchands d'esclaves; on voit un acheteur poser sur une table l'argent qui représente, sans doute, un esclave qui l'attend, derrière lui, le bonnet à la main et les fers aux pieds. Un acquéreur est représenté la main sur un baton, le visage baissé. Le groupe du milieu présente des esclaves suivant leur acheteur, les pieds encore enchaînés. Le groupe de gauche est conduit par un oriental dont le costume ressemble à ceux des personnages de "Soliman", il les dirige vers le marché aux esclaves.Au second plan, à gauche, se trouvent des maisons à murs épais qui laissent apparaître, par des meurtrières, la gueule de cinq canons. Le toit d'une de ces maisons porte une terrasse couverte comme on en voit en Italie. Le fond du dessin représente un port de mer avec des bateaux.

From LinkedCulture

This seventeenth-century etching by Jacques Callot goes where most European artists of his time would not: directly into the transaction of a slave market. At the lower right, a buyer counts money onto a table while a manacled man stands behind him, hat in hand and irons on his feet. In the background, a fortified Mediterranean harbour with cannons and moored ships tells you exactly where this commerce was happening. Published by Israel Henriet, the print matters because Callot brought the same precise, unflinching eye to human bondage that he brought to royal festivals and sieges.
